The University of Virginia awarded a purchase order (PO-0474983) to W W Grainger Inc on August 29, 2026, for the procurement of specialized water filtration equipment. The contract, valued at ninety-two dollars, involves the delivery of a single quick-connect water filter unit designed for use with EZH2O bottle fillers. The filter is engineered to reduce chlorine odor and taste while removing cysts, lead, particulates, and sediment, with a micron rating of 0.5 micron and a flow rate of 1.5 gallons per minute. The unit specifications include a diameter of 3 1/8 inches and an overall height of 9 1/2 inches, with a service life capacity of 3,000 gallons.

Delivery of the filtration equipment is designated for Thomas Anthony Evatt at the University of Virginia in Virginia. As a purchase order rather than a comprehensive contract vehicle, this award represents a discrete procurement transaction with a unit price of $92.86 per filter. The transaction falls under the state of Virginia's contracting activity and reflects routine capital equipment procurement through an established vendor relationship with W W Grainger Inc, a recognized supplier of industrial and facility maintenance products.
